面向组织者与集体工作的神经系统调节 | 心理社会韧性

How can organisers sustain themselves and their communities while working through stress, conflict, and uncertainty? This session explores 神经系统调节 as a practical foundation for psycho-social resilience in collective work and movements for social and ecological change.

Developed through the work of Ulex, this embodied practice introduces the body’s natural stress responses—fight, flight, freeze, and appease—and explores how they shape our relationships, decision-making, collaboration, and capacity to stay engaged during challenging situations. By learning to recognize these responses in ourselves and others, participants develop a shared language for navigating stress with greater awareness, compassion, and choice.

The session includes practical regulation techniques such as grounding, centering, tapping, and other embodiment practices that help widen our “window of tolerance.” These accessible tools support participants in moving from reactive stress states toward greater presence, resilience, and connection.

Beyond individual wellbeing, this approach explores resilience across multiple levels—personal, interpersonal, community, and movement-wide. Participants are invited to reflect on how nervous system awareness can strengthen group culture, improve collaboration, support healthy conflict, and reduce burnout within organisations and grassroots movements.

Ideal for community organisers, facilitators, activists, nonprofit teams, Transition practitioners, and movement leaders, this session offers practical skills for cultivating resilient groups that can sustain meaningful change over the long term while fostering care, co-regulation, and collective wellbeing.
